Help with XML/XSL

[danc888]

I am attempting to write an XSL file to transform the orignal XML
document to only show the elements I need. I have a problem though,
the XML document contains an xmlns "urn" which when present means my
XSL file does not work and shows nothing. What I am doing wrong? I am
newbie to all of this so any help would be great.

XML Document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF8" ?> 
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="eBayProductSearchXSL.xsl"?>

XSL:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

Please don't double post.

Just delete it (details see below). Than programs like XMLstarlet run without problems...

Just change the eBay Original:
<GetSearchResul tsResponse xmlns="urn:ebay :apis:eBLBaseCo mponents">
into:
<GetSearchResul tsResponse>

That's it :-)

that will not help if the XML can’t be changed.

your XSL fails, because your XPath expressions are not namespace aware.

ex

<xsl:value-of select="urn:GetSearchResultsResponse/urn:PaginationResult/urn:TotalNumberOfPages"/>

PS. I wouldn’t call the ebay namespace "urn" it might be treated as reserved keyword (URN = uniform resource name)
